All rights reserved © TheUfuoma Meet the author Jessica Ufuoma Avid traveler & Travel Blogger I'm Ufuoma, a travel blogger who lives and works in Toronto, Canada. I love traveling, exploring new cultures and sharing my adventures online. Thanks to my travel tips, hacks and advice, I have helped lots of people reach their travel goals. After traveling to over 40 countries, I've collected some tips and hacks along the way. I created this book to share them with you. These things make travel possible for me and I'm confident they will do the same for you. Nothing good comes easy but with access to information, smart work and a willingness to learn, the world is your oyster. Enjoy my creation.

I left my family and friends in Nigeria, quit a fairly-good paying job and ventured abroad for a Master's Degree program in International Business. It was not my first time in Canada, but it was my first time building a new life from scratch. Many days were tough – adjusting to a new culture, new people and landscapes is never easy. Coupled with the added responsibilities of taking a Postgraduate program, it was a big shoe to fill. During my studies, I stumbled on something that completely altered the course of my life. I stumbled on travel. Yes, I say stumble because travel was never a part of the grand plans I had for my life but a hike up to Machu Picchu convinced me it was what I needed to be doing. I remember that trip to Machu Picchu so vividly. I, alongside four other total strangers kicked off our hike to the mountain peak. It's called the Inca trail and most people never make it up there. But I was going to make it, right? And yes I did. No small feat at all. Getting to the top of the mountain was the most rewarding experience ever. That day, I saw life through a different lens – one that was vastly different from the one I had grown up learning. That day, I made a promise to myself to continue to travel the world and discover parts of myself I didn't know existed. To continue to travel the world and learn, unlearn, relearn. So, I did just that. I took one more flight. And then another. And then another. And before I knew it, I had traveled to over 40 countries and 105 cities. I've met people, many of which I may never see again, and my world has become incredibly large – bigger than I could ever have imagined if I had stayed back home and lived in comfort and security. I want you to feel the magic of travel too. All rights reserved © TheUfuoma Then came the questions... 40 countries, you said? You must be very wealthy or have a rich sponsor or a trust fund. Wait. "Who's paying for these flights?" "How have you done it?" These are only a few of the many questions I get asked all the time. I'd like to give you relief and let you know there's nothing special about what I am doing. I wish I could tell you I had a secret wand that once activated, transports me to different parts of the world. But I don't. What I do have though, is 100 travel hacks and tips I have collected over the course of my travels which I am sure will put you on the right path to seeing more of the world. Whether you want to go on your dream vacation or make travel a part of your lifestyle. All rights reserved © TheUfuoma The tools you need! This book is for everyone who wants to travel Consider this a book that will help you travel more and give you the wealth of information you need to conquer the world and explore new territories and landscapes. You will find all my best tips, tricks, advice and information that I have gathered over the past five years of constant traveling. Travel isn't perfect - but one thing I know for sure is this, it is a worthy investment of your time and resources.

Momondo.com You can find the cheapest flights on this site and compare with other sites. Skyscanner.com This is the website I swear by. I especially love the 'EVERYWHERE' feature. It often leads to good flight deals. Kayak.com I love using this site to set price alerts. You can do the same on skyscanner.com as well. Bookit.com This is a great website for booking all- inclusive deals (flights and accommodation). All rights reserved © TheUfuoma Flight Booking Hacks More times than not, the flight cost is usually the most expensive part of the travel budget so I will focus first on this. Many people don't know where to go for affordable flight tickets or where to even begin. Don't worry, I will help you out. The key to booking great flight tickets is three things: Flexibility, Timing and Knowing where to book from. I'll break it down for you. All rights reserved © TheUfuoma Flexibility The more flexible you are with your travel plans, the better your chances of scoring an affordable ticket within your budget. 1. Use Skyscanner's 'Everywhere feature' If you are flexible with your travel date and travel destination, then you have a greater advantage. Here's an example using Skyscanner.com's EVERYWHERE feature. This will pull up the best prices for the cheapest months of the year. All rights reserved © TheUfuoma Timing 2. Travel during low season In the world of travel, there is something called Peak Season and Low Season. Peak season means more people are visiting the country and so, everything is more expensive. Low season means people typically visit the country less so cost reduces drastically. For example, I went to Costa Rica in September during low season and hotels were half the price. 3. Knowing when to book Is there any such thing as the best time to book a flight ticket? Maybe, maybe not. In the world of flight bookings, nothing is ever guaranteed. However, in my experience, buying a ticket six weeks in advance has been the most cost effective for me. You do not want to buy it too close to your departure date as most likely, the airlines would have increased the prices as the flight gets full. You also do not want to book too far in advance as you may miss out on competitive rate. Two months to six weeks is usually a sweet spot. 4. Booking your tickets on a weekday I find that I get some of my best ticket prices when I book on a weekday vs a weekend. I guess it makes sense because the demand is lower on a weekday as many people are busy with school and work and usually check for flight tickets on the weekend. I once saw the price of a trip to Thailand drop by $200 because I booked on a Tuesday vs when I checked the weekend before. It never hurts to try. All rights reserved © TheUfuoma More flight hacks 5. Checking for flights on mobile vs. desktop. I have seen situations where booking a flight on my mobile phone was cheaper than desktop, and vice versa. Make sure to check both before making a purchase. 6. Browsing in incognito window. This is one of the age-old travel myths. I say myth because it hasn’t been fully confirmed yet but I do this sometimes because it doesn't hurt to try. Browsing in incognito means browsing privately so that airlines are unable to track your search history. Many people say that when you search too long for a flight ticket, it shows you are really in need of it and this pushes the price up.

  • Study Abroad Handbook
    Study Abroad Handbook Dear Study Abroad Student, You are about to begin what will probably be one of the most exciting adventures of your life—studying abroad. With your departure only a few months away, you have probably begun to wonder what you should pack, what health precautions you should take before departing, and what it will be like living and studying in your host country. Hopefully, this handbook and the study abroad orientations will help answer most of those questions. The information that follows is a collection of advice from our office staff and former participants. All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge at the time of printing. If you have updated information upon your return from study abroad, please let us know. We would greatly appreciate it if you could help us update this handbook for next year’s participants. Remember to EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED. Ultimately, no written materials or suggestions are going fully to prepare you for what lies ahead. A lot of the responsibility for the experience comes down to you and your attitude and preparation for your sojourn abroad. We recommend that you do some preparatory research on your host country on your own through guidebooks, suggested reading and movie lists, and talking to students who have recently returned from studying abroad. Also, the best approach to take is to keep an open mind, remain flexible, and be patient, especially with yourself, as you adjust to your new environment. We wish you all the best! Sincerely, The Office of International Programs Meredith College 124 Joyner Hall 3800 Hillsborough Street Raleigh, NC 27607 919-760-2307 1 Table of Contents Important People & Deadlines to Remember .....................................................................

  • Google-ITA AAI White Paper2.18.11
    AN EXAMINATION OF THE ANTITRUST ISSUES POSED BY GOOGLE’S ACQUISITION OF ITA Randy Stutz* February 18, 2011 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The proposed merger between Google and ITA Software, Inc. (ITA) offers antitrust enforcers the latest in a series of escalating challenges in which high technology markets seem to be straining the boundaries of antitrust analysis. Apart from the very difficult analysis, however, this transaction raises broader questions of competition policy concerning Google’s rapid growth as a one-of-a-kind firm. The deal might even have implications for the future of airline ticket distribution. In this white paper, the American Antitrust Institute (AAI) seeks to identify and explore both the narrow and broad competition issues that are raised by a Google/ITA combination. In the narrowest sense, acquiring ITA would put Google in the business of supplying a technology input that powers downstream products in a vertical online search market. That is, Google would own what many consider to be the premier technology that online travel agents, travel meta-search websites, and airline websites license from ITA to afford Internet users the ability to search real-time pricing and seat availability data in the course of shopping for airline tickets online. Neither Google nor ITA currently competes in the provision of this data to Internet users by “online travel search” firms, but together they seem to have such firms surrounded. Companies like Kayak, Orbitz and Hotwire, as well as airlines, rely heavily on Google to tell consumers where they can get airline pricing and availability data on the Internet, and they rely heavily on ITA to deliver the data itself.
